EastWind [94]

Answer:

The burn may be classified as a <u>Fourth-degree burn with 31 % of TBSA.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

There are 4 types of burn classifications: Superficial burn <u>(first-degree)</u>, Superficial partial thickness burn or Deep partial thickness burn<u> (second-degree),</u> Full thickness burn <u>(third-degree),</u> and Fourth-degree burn.

<h3>Superficial burn or First-degree burn</h3>

Involved layer is <u>epidermis</u>
It appears red <u>without blisters</u> with <u>dry</u> texture
With sensation of <u>pain is present</u>
Healing time <u>within 5 - 10 days</u> and heals well with <u>no complications</u>.

<h3>Superficial partial thickness burn/Deep partial thickness burn or Second-degree burn</h3>

It extends to the <u>dermis</u>. (<em>papillary</em> for superficial, <em>reticular</em> for deep)
<u>Blanches with pressure</u>, <u>with or without blistering</u>, <u>red to yellow, white appearance, moist to dry texture</u>
It still presents <u>with pain</u>, superficial and deep.
Healing may take <u>2-3 weeks for superficial, 3-8 weeks for deep</u>. Local infection may occur and scarring may ensue.

<h3>Full thickness burn (Third-degree)</h3>

Destroys the <u>entire dermis.</u>
<u>Stiff with white-brown appearance</u>, <u>NO blanching, with leathery texture.</u>
<u>Painless</u>
<u>Long time needed for recovery</u>. It may need surgical removal of dead tissue.

<h3>Fourth-degree burn</h3>

Encompasses the <u>whole layer of skin and underlying fat, exposing the bones and/or muscles.</u>
<u>Black and charred (eschar), dry texture.</u>
<u>Painless</u>
Definitely <u>needs surgical removal of dead tissue</u> to allow recovery.
It may also cause <u>significant functional disability</u>.

<h3 /><h3>Wallace “Rule of Nines” </h3>

To determine for the burn percentage, we use the <em>Wallace “Rule of Nines” </em>chart. It <u>estimates the percentage of total body surface area (TBSA) that has been destroyed by burns</u>. The diagram attached shows the body divided into multiple sections which represent 9% of the body surface area.

For the example, we have the following given and corresponding percentages:

Entire surface of the right lower limb - 18% (the whole right leg is affected, front and back, so that's 18%)
Entire surface of right trunk - 9% (The trunk is 18% in whole, but in this example, only the right trunk is affected, so that's 9%)
Anterior surface of the right upper limb - 4.5% (Only the front surface of the right arm is affected so it's 4.5%)

% TSBA = 18 + 9 + 4.5

How many repetitions of an example will best improve muscular strength?

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

1-6

Explanation:

Increase in muscle mass, ie muscle cell hypertrophy, is achieved through training with a load not exceeding 85% of maximum. Large muscle groups such as pectoralis, latissimus, and quadriceps are trained in 4 batches per workout, but the number of batches per muscle group should not exceed 12. For smaller muscle groups such as biceps and triceps it is enough to make 3 series. Exercises are performed at a slow pace to maximize muscle contraction and extend the amount of time the muscle spends under load.

Number of batches per exercise: 4

Number of exercises per muscle group: 3

Number of reps per exercise: 8 - 12 (10 is ideal)

Load: 70 - 85% of maximum load

Rest: 60 - 90 seconds
